Q & A with Grandpa? He's got a lot of skills. Carpentry to welding....

[@johnvogel641]

“‘Em” you andJade,andSammie deserve an LT70.And I am sure “The Boss” knows that and when the time is right you will.Woodmizer should sponsor the ladies of Ironwood Acres in my oppinion

[@redneck3848]

I was looking at the lt70 and it looks like you have to walk back and forth with the controls sup with that IDK

[@centexan]

I'm sure you've heard this before, but you are all so lucky to be working together in a family business. Some may eventually go off to do other things. But this experience is invaluable and should be cherished.

[@dlaitch]

The lumber mill business is certainly labor intensive and impressive how Emerald & Jade are pulling over their weight with the hard work they put in. Please note the safety concerns stated by a viewer when around machinery especially. Hope you are all able to stay together in the business. Possibly hiring help for the more laborious tasks as time passes. When a lot of youth are wasting their lives playing video games or doping it up it is so pleasant to see you two and Sammie learning real life tools and experiences.👌👌👌

[@sport07-o2l]

I have to say…your diction is impeccable and appreciated.

[@greggrondin3034]

Jade got them high dollar fancy shorts on today! 🤣

[@johnmeyer4801]

I'm glad you always tie your hair up when working around machinery.

[@tomnellis]

Wow, you guys should be models and sponsored by all the lumber biggies, woodmiser, stihl, John deere, etc., etc.

[@gordbaker896]

Very labour intensive. You and sis are incredible workers. Woodmizer should indeed sponsor you.

[@Sojournart]

Emerald, thanks for making it so easy to understand what processes are taking place in your videos and why you are doing them. Jade, love the Daisy Dukes!!!

[@trevortoop5166]

God bless these girls for giving the world a lumber education.

[@richiecaelwarts1911]

You girls are some hard working people your Dad must be so proud of you girls .

[@kevincorbin6273]

Love to see you talk to your grandpa about the business

[@richardgreenlaw1442]

Suggestion for upgrading , take sales of one product, and set it aside until you have the nessisary funding. Food for thought. Once you have the new mill, continue saving from that product for future upgrades or accessories.

[@stephenmeadows6483]

I don't know if this comment is a repeat from someone, but on the chance that no one has... Loose clothing can also be dangerous. Belt it, wrap it, tie it. Don't let it get caught in your equipment!! I agree wholeheartedly with Kevin's comment as well!

[@bluenetmarketing]

I "saw" Sami in the background. Good to see her again.

[@thomashodge1154]

I noticed that also. 😜

[@dennishinkle5010]

Great video. I noticed that Jade and your grandpa are very accurate on measurements. Thank you.

[@peterpicciano124]

Definitely considering Hemlock shake shingles for my home after seeing this video ,maybe even from your lumber yard , Thanks for this and all the other videos,

[@greywolfwalking6359]

A team effort by the best qualified spokes models ... They talk the talk n do the walk... Awesome folks!! Thanks 👍!!! 👍🧙‍♂️🐺!!!

[@gilbertdelgado6703]

I watched one you tube channel that was based up in Canada and they were using mill similar to your 15. They were building a cabin and milled all their needed lumber including lap siding. They kept the thicker side of the siding with a live edge and it really looked good. Great video, keep up the good work.

[@bolwarracolt1]

In Australia we use to them as "weather boards" out hardwood and sometimes pine. This was done with a 42 inch circular saw by sight and running on the edge. Sheep yard flooring was a similar process.(to let poo and wee through) Mills make good money when your gear is sound . Still have weather boards on old dairy cut in the 1930s.

[@hyundia1]

love all your videos Emerald keep up the great work hope you girls have a great summer

[@buckchamp9011]

What a great team 👍🏼❤️🇺🇸 love your hair 😊🤙🏻

[@tonytony6710]

Awesome video love your family's hard work

[@stevenbutler2824]

Great video as always, very informative

[@dcvariousvids8082]

Thanks for that, I had wondered how lap was made.

[@ROBERTHOCKER]

Everything is valuable. Short wood can be made into shims even for loggers.

[@saltrock9642]

That was fun to watch and very informative. I have cypress lap siding wrapping my second story of my log home. Any lap siding needs a little TLC and it will last forever.

[@rexhavoc2982]

With a bit of grinding you can get 2-3 more pieces of lap siding off of each cant. Just turn the pipe clamps down. After your first cut to true up the cant turn it over and re clamp it. Using a angle grinder cut a notch into each of the clamps thin side like a tooth and it will grab the cant on the lower 1/4 inch. I can send you a simple drawing of how to do it. I guess by now you have learned that each cut is 2 different drop down amounts, but always the same amounts.

[@cameronhamer9432]

You can reduce splitting or cracking by painting the ends of the cants. There is a saw that splits a two inch board into two pieces of lap siding by ripsawing them on a diangle . Extremely efficient 👍🇨🇦

[@royormonde3682]

I've cut some siding in the past and just used a little template of the profile to mark the end of log so you don't have to pull out the tape measure everytime. It just hung on the end of log the bring the blade up to it, or you could simply mark a line with pencil.

[@desert-walker]

Awesome you guys are fantastic, Love the channel

[@dannyaavang803]

Great videos, thank you for taking the time to make them! With all of moving parts on the equipment, please be careful that your hair doesn't get caught in anything, you could be scalped, get your neck broken or get your head slammed into the equipment.

[@Suncast45]

lady that worked in a Dental Lab had her long hair caught in a bench lathe in a flash while polishing a denture! It required stiches in her scalp! Hate to think what that wood cutting equipment would do!

[@d.t.4523]

Good luck to you! Keep working. 👍

[@paulc.4211]

great video very informative thank you

[@billyshumate853]

Great video. Keep up the good work.

[@morgansword]

Lap siding has been around for a real long time and they even have one for circular saws thats fairly simple as well. As for different size saws, I am a greedy man. I always go big or go home. I wonder just how hard it would really be to set up the hydraulic arm for the fifteen sawmill.. should not be too overwhelming to handle so the production could go even higher as in offbearing for yourself and eliminating a person full time, they could do more stickering for faster drying also. I think once people see it enough, it could grow exponentially

[@fredericktownhomestead8094]

I used one of the first LT15, made back about the time the boss was born. We had that mill until we got our Frink.

[@greenbudkelly2820]

Keep the sun behind the camera for consistent exposure in your videos.

[@edwardmullendore2007]

The left over could use as trim boards make sense

[@derekbueckert7428]

works fine but I like the design that tilts the saw head rather than the timber its keep up the hard work. it always pays when you put your all in

[@millax-ev6yz]

Great music, educational and fun video!

[@KJ6EAD]

Regarding new, more automated equipment, you are all staying fit by being on the Ironwood actual work workout plan. If you're sitting in an operator cab eating Cheetos while the boards are cutting and stacking themselves, you'll all start developing spherically shaped bodies.

[@dalemasyk1583]

tks for on the how its made pretty neat , well done girls .

[@wesgraham9588]

Good job ! 👍🏼

[@iron-gamerstv]

It's so beautiful in the Mountains... I really enjoy your video's.

[@rodcros]

That's a lot quicker than shop-built cove siding. I tongue-and-groove a pine board planed to 15/16", then cut a cove on the tongue side. That takes three trips through the shaper after ripping and planing.

[@davidwilshusen4332]

Like your background music Love your mill setup Family owned and operated SWEET SAWDUST IN THE BLOOD

[@russellkeeling4387]

As an old home contractor I can say from experience the wood siding will stand up much better than the plastic sidings. If a plastic siding is used only the very light colored ones will last on the south facing side of the building because of so some much sunlight the siding will absorb heat and sag. It while happen shortly after the siding is installed. I've had damage from the sun on wood siding but only when the siding was not maintained with a good sealer.

[@mikeman230]

I bought the power feed for my LT15. Well worth the money

[@230e4]

Nice job! 👍

[@coryshook7648]

It’s such an odd thing to me that I am watching this very pretty young teenage girl talk to me like she’s a middle-aged man and the way she thinks and works is like a man and it is all good and admirable and I have a high respect for this young girl it’s just such a weird combination that’s hard to wrap my mind around because she doesn’t act like a typical teenage girl I mean she’s really involved and really knows her job and seems to be enthusiastic about it. It’s not bad at all in fact it’s good but it’s kind of trippy. A nod to her parents for doing such a great job. Young people like her and make me proud to be an American.

[@stephensteen9058]

Awesome emm as usual

[@rolandtinker734]

hilarious 😂 Have a great day gals

[@timbungarner3842]

I often wondered if lap siding was tapered or just square good video

[@novertfrancisco6546]

I love the way you talk..

[@endall6783]

What about putting a drive motor and a control panel on the 15? You all could do that and make it how you want it to work.

[@chridi3]

Jade is the MVP

[@wirehyperspace]

that was nice to see and just the other day I was watching an old model Owen Bosma's shingle cutter, cutting logs into shingles running off old tractor with a belt wishing it was running off free electric energy

[@farmerbill6855]

No such thing as free electric energy.

[@rexhavoc2982]

@@farmerbill6855 I want some of that also, show me.

[@stomp4423]

Em, that hair is 🔥!!! Reminds me of Sansa Stark. Lol. Keep up the great content.

[@arjenvandoorne9321]

The average account of wood processing has to be planted for a sustainable enterprise which requires a specific surface of the forest for the duration of a new grown tree of the average age of the processed woods. In the first phase the surface of old forest will be thinned out before coming to the question of making wood plots. One shall be appointed to work the mill, the other for the permutation to wood plots arranged by the signature of possession as an investment in the youth but to the promise to life it shall not come anymore. It is possible that there is a big company behind where daughters marry. The world of SDG.

[@brucemartin5510]

Mesmerizing beauty!

[@g.fortin3228]

It a lot of work.. nice job girls. Nobody lazy there in that line of work. Nice to see how it's done. :- )

[@David66Stang]

Wonderfully insightful video. I find it ironic Emerald mentioned wood siding as an alternative to plastic when it was reversed back in the day!

[@paulslocomb6805]

I just stared to follow you so I haven't seen any fire wood in your lot but have you ever thought about making pellets from the saw dust 🤔??

[@johnavonyates4105]

I wish I was close enough to come get a load of wood Winter is coming fast.

[@mikef7306]

Do you ever seal the end of logs to prevent uneven drying that causes checking/cracking on the end? Why or why not do it based on your experience?

[@hash46176]

I'm looking at the wood miser lx50.

[@stevewoods8116]

[@mrwest5552]

lap siding ... standard issue on some early wood South Lake Tahoe cabins.

[@zbigniewkozlowski2749]

They are gona have hard punch from that cranking and pushing , modifications , improvements please , it is year of 2022 , Zbyszek former sawmill chief mechanic , The best REGARDS Ziggy Canada

[@twistedlimb4053]

When I make cants for lap siding I cut the face that will go in the clamps just enough to lay flat and stay solid usually about a 4" wide opening. This gets me an extra board and I'm wasting more wane than lumber.

[@johnchristie1423]

With a mill that long now you can look at sawing canoe gunnels out of ash....was my best seller

[@thomasspainhour1112]

Thanks for sharing 👍 NC USA 👏 🇺🇸

[@nigelparker5886]

Comments here are right, even though these girls are pretty clued up and switched on...but..I saw someone I worked with years ago, who got his long hair caught up in a pillar drill..and it scalped him! I looked up as it was happening only because I was getting splashed by centrifuged blood! His screams are still in my ears! Fortunately he passed out and they managed to sew it all back on, but he was traumatised for life! Ouch! True story I swear! Cheers

[@zandemen]

You can't cut lower than 1.5", but you can cut higher. Why not stop at 2" and make a 2x6(8) out of your scrap? Also, something you see often in fine carpentry is temporary fastening or sacrificial boards, so you could have a 1.5"x 8" filler board, glue or tape your work piece to it and cut right to the bottom of it, which is the top of your filler. Reglue, reuse for next one. just have to balance cost of glue or tape and time vs losing a 1.5x every time. Perhaps faster and easier would be calls made from scrap, placed over each of the clamps, with a 1.5x5.9" filler the calls can clamp the board on top of it and are cut away as you bottom out your cut. i do this sometimes with shake blocks that are too short or stepped, just put a scrap piece of wood on top of it to clamp it in the carriage.

[@meehere7414]

Even tin can't hold up to lap siding they proved that a long time ago but people don't always use the best decisions,

[@ROBERTHOCKER]

Keep small pieces for furniture builders and carpenters for trim

[@boblohof4579]

Watch "Out of the Woods". He buys blades for his LT 70 from a different source.

[@paultyminski4697]

Is it not possible to use long L shaped packer prices to cut last timber into siding also not waste as firewood but 2 more boards? Worth a mention I hope , simplest things sometimes work

[@jimbrown4661]

Is There Any Way To Shim That Last Little 1-1/2" Slab Up High So You Can Cut 3??? More Pieces???? And Or Take That Last Slab Piece Up To Your Other Saw And Cut 1 plank/ Board Out Of It ??? I-1/2" Or 5/4" By Whatever???

[@JohnDavis-tj1bl]

Will the accuset on your lt40 not make those calculations for the siding for ya instead of having to use a tape measure on every single board?

[@alpinegeordie]

Get your hair tied up girls! if it is pulled into the motors of blades you will regret it !! It just makes sense! we love your hair too and want you to keep it !

[@kevinkelley332]

I have teenage daughters and you have pretty long hair so i understand but please for safety sakes put your hair up whenever your dealling with machinery. I have been witness to some horrific accidents that remain embedded in my mind for these poor victims.

[@garysavich6447]

I was thinking the same thing when I watched this exact video. She should tie her hair up or something. I worry she's going to get it caught in something

[@jorgearevalo1879]

I agree accident happens, 👍

[@jeepjeff9131]

I said the same thing a few videos back. I cringe when I see some of their videos.

[@waynebeck7801]

The long hair gets more views.

[@yeahrightok.3975]

Pretty sure if she caught a clump od hair it would pull the hair from the head, if her whole head of hair was in a ponytail and that got caught I'd be expecting a neck breakage before the hair did. My logic may be flawed but that how I see it.

[@mykatawato2043]

Love your videos. It is great that you folks can work in your family business. I worked with my dad for many years and we lost him last year. I am so glad I had a chance to work with him for all those years. A family-run business is always a special thing. Keep up the great work and good luck always to all of you!

[@paulprigge1209]

I’m not trying to hurt your feelings or be critical. So please take this the right way. Put your hair up in a bun and avoid loose clothing with him doing that type of work. The aftermath can’t be life changing not only for you but Especially for those who find you. Just the country hick from the sticks Midwest. Thank you for your videos. You’re doing a great job Young lady. God bless

What if you left enough of final cut and sell as 2x6 or 8?

[@georgeshotrodbarn2113]

When it comes to woodmizer mills you don't have to ask what they cost just look at the number it's the price a LT70 is seventy thousand dollars

so, do you use the mill to make your cut off shorts? how much would you charge to cut the legs of some sweat pants i have to make into shorts using the mill? i've got a LT-BFG9000. cuts all the wood with plasma lasers, and can be used stop an alien invasion. whenever i try to make shorts with the LT-BFG9000, i just end up with a pile of ashes.

[@davidtom6120]

[@patrickdumont8670]

I was wondering if you put a 1" 1/2 under the "kant" before putting it on the mizer, would you still lose the last plank of the "kant" ?

[@AquaPeet]

I think you wouldn't be able to clamp it? Not sure
